332 # For now, guess that later spring and fall transitions will use |
332 # Egypt's ministers cabinet just announced ... that it will cancel DST at |
333 # 2014's rules, and guess that Egypt will switch to standard time at |

334 # 24:00 the last Thursday before Ramadan, and back to DST at 00:00 the |

337 # "Egypt's cabinet agreed on Monday not to switch clocks for daylight saving |
338 # by hand into the table below. Ramadan again intrudes on the guessed |
338 # time this summer, and carry out studies on the possibility of canceling the |
